About WHO in Bangladesh

Since 1972, WHO has supported the Government of the People’s Republic of Bangladesh to strengthen the country’s health system and improve health and well-being for all.

WHO provides technical expertise to support the development of evidence-based policies, strategies, guidelines and standards; strengthen the skills and capacity of health professionals and institutions; improve the quality and delivery of health services; and advance health research, data and evidence. WHO also monitors health trends and emerging risks, helping inform national priorities and guide effective public health action.

Through this longstanding partnership, WHO supports Bangladesh to build a stronger, more equitable and resilient health system – one that can meet today’s health needs while preparing for the challenges of the future.

Our core functions:

Guided by the WHO Country Cooperation Strategy (CCS) 2020–2025 (Extended till 2026) and aligned with the UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2022–2026 (Extended till 2027), WHO Bangladesh currently focuses on four strategic health priorities:

• Enhance efforts to ensure more people benefit from Universal Health Coverage
• Promote healthy lifestyles, prevent risk factors and protect people from emerging and re-emerging diseases
• Create and enabling environment for healthy life and well-being
• Strengthen health system resilience to protect health and mitigate effects of health emergencies, including disease outbreaks, and manage effects of climate change
